Academy Soccer (Fall 2025)
The Stillwater Soccer Club Academy is committed to providing quality coaching and training for our young players. Our focus is on nurturing their soccer skills and techniques while gradually introducing team play concepts. Seasoned in both soccer education and youth development, our coaching staff emphasizes technical skills and tactical awareness in a balanced approach.
We aim to foster a learning environment where players can grow at their own pace. This involves focused training combined with encouragement for personal creativity and expression on the field. The SSC Academy approach is centered on building a solid foundation in soccer fundamentals, ensuring each player enjoys and succeeds in the game.
The Academy program caters to girls and boys born in 2016 and 2017.
U10 (Born in 2016)
Tryouts will be held May 19th and 20th from 5:45-7:15pm at the Stillwater Medical Soccer Complex, and placement carries through the full 10-month season from Fall 2025 to Summer 2026.
The U10 Academy team does not participate in a traditional league; instead, we will enter at least two tournaments each season and arrange “friendly” matches with nearby clubs, traveling to venues such as Tulsa, OKC, and Wichita. Practice sessions are held twice each week at our training fields under the guidance of a paid professional academy coach.
In addition, Academy teams often engage in a Winter Session at Soccer City OKC and may join a Summer Session or 3v3 tournaments at the same venue, all coordinated by a parent volunteer.
U9 (Born in 2017)
The U9 Academy is a part-time program built on our Recreation League foundation. Players continue their two day a week Recreation practices and games, plus one dedicated Academy coaching night each week at our training fields. Fall 2025 tryouts for U9 will take place in August (exact dates announced as they approach), with a second spring tryout in early 2026. Like U10, the U9 Academy will seek out friendly matches and tournament opportunities based on interest, all under the guidance of our professional academy coach..
